[squid-users] advisory message before browsing

hello

I'm looking for a pointer to a howto or other docs or a brief overview
of how to implement the mechanism whereby upon commencement of browsing
one can enter a url and before it is loaded another page (either in the
main browser window or as a separate pop up window) is displayed with
text showing the company policy or such, then when ok is clicked in
that window, the requested page loads.

I can get that a redirector would be handy - squid sends the requested
url to the redirector (any url or only unapproved ones for eg) which is
then rewritten to the advisory page. This would display the advice page
in the same browser window. But then how does one construct the
mechanism to continue to the requested url?

Seems that the url for the advice page could be comprised of javascript
to cause a new window to appear - is it as simple as once such a window
is dismissed the requested url would get loaded? if not, what else is
needed?

Further how is this accomplished so that the warning advice only
appears upon first using the browser (time limited or what)?

or are there completely better ways to do this?

apologies if this is a bit far off topic for this list.

thanks
